steak with white beans and watercress

Tonight is going to be short and sweet because at 20:00 it's Tom Barnaby's last ever Midsomer Murder, and I'm not going to miss one second of John Nettle's twinkly eyes or curmudgeonly ways!

With speed (and taste *obvs*) in mind, and with one eye on last week's rather disappointing iron test when I gave blood, we're on the steak, tonight accompanied by a butter bean, cannellini bean and watercress salad, in a white wine vinegar and mustard dressing.

I can also exclusively confirm I had a little tear in my eye when Tom gave his retirement speech, and even Ana Louise said she's miss him. Although given ITV3 have repeats every Saturday, and it's on every week day on ITV, and I've got two box sets, I don't think it's goodbye just yet.
